Google Map Maker,

Please help. The user "Dylan" has very recently added close to 300
features that I beleive to be all completely false. The link below
will take you to where his additions to the map are. If we have to
painstakingly delete all of them this will take hours and days since
many of the edits are roads which will have to be deleted section by
section and it is not easy when deleting so many to keep track of what
you have deleted and what still needs to be deleted.

Please freeze this account as I fear that as soon as any are deleted
he/she will just add them back. If you could also mass delete
everything they have done that will save an incedible amount of time.

Although the system "worked" and most if not all of his edits are in
moderation the fact that he/she can add close to 300, all false, shows
that your system is again terriby inadequate.

You should seriously think of also limiting the feature additions to a
manageable number, say 10, as a first time user. Then, after most of
the initial ten are published then they are allowed to enter more.

Please help by freezing the account and mass deleting everything they
did.

Thanks,
Gorio

Hi,
Thanks for the creating the issue on the Issue tracker. (Issue 345
for those interested: http://code.google.com/p/google-mapmaker/issues/detail?id=345)
Thanks also for posting about this user. We will get that user marked
as a spammer and delete all of those features. Once a user has been
marked as a spammer, he will not be able add any features.

Regards,
Map Maker Guide.
